Well..........today we attended a performance at Chuck Swindoll's church, Stonebriar Community Church...it was beautiful, so angelic! I only hope that the day that I make those first steps into heaven that I have a choir singing behind me like I heard today!! It was awesome. Allen's neice sang in the choir! What a treat.

When we walked in the door Ginny wanted to put makeup on and put it on me....so the boys took a nap and we had makeovers......well.....not sure if I would call my face a makeover but you get the point. I love Ginny....she makes me laugh soooo hard. She LOVES makeup soooo much!!! haha!!

Reese had tummy time before his nap with Daddy...he is starting to LOVE playing and we just get a kick watching him explore all his new toys!!

Well...Reese is just growing up sooo fast!!! He is close to being 12 pounds and LOVES to eat!!! Lets just say Mommy and Reese have ALOT of bonding time! :)

He wants to talk sooo bad!!! This morning after Ginny left for school we had some playtime and he was talking away. I wish I could have captured more of his baby talk...but he got bored with it very fast!

Today we are working on sleeping in his crib. Yes, we spoiled him...he was been co sleeping with us...it is just so easy at night when I have to feed him...basically I dont have to get out of bed! BUT, I have to be mean mommy and get him to be more independent...we will see how long this lasts! He is soooo attached to me it really is ridiculous!

Other than that, we are enjoying our day and I am getting caught up on all my thank you notes!!!

Last night we all went to the galleria to watch Ginny skate!! She had a blast!!! Allen was a great teacher as well. It was also my first time to nurse in public, so we all experienced :firsts: last night!! Here are some great pics!

Today Ginny went to school and Reese and I enjoyed some picture time. He didnt like it much but the boxers and hat trip me out! When Ginny got home from school we made a Gingerbread house. Of course, she ate it faster than I could make it....but it was fun! I am not going to lie...it was tasty! Other than that, today has been a normal day! Reese has been attached to my boob and Ginny sings and entertains us!! Life is grand!

Well........................I have ALOT of catching up to do since Reese is already TWO MONTHS!! Sorry....I have been very busy. He is such a blessing...sweetest little boy! We have been enjoying every minute with our baby boy! He weighed 7 pounds 12 ounces, and was 19 inches long. The delivery went great...I went in the hospital the night before to be induced. Around 7am on Oct. 7th, we started the pitocin and epidural quickly to follow. He was out and in my arms at 3:21am. We are soooo happy and so proud of our baby boy!

Friends

I am a proud wife and mother. As I lay my head on my pillow each night I cannot help but laugh at how crazy my life is....but I would not change it for the world. Allen and I adopted the sweetest little girl at the age of 2, Virginia Paige (Ginny) and then, 9 months later had our little monster, Reese Allen. Ginny is the sweetest soul, Mommy's best little friend and Daddy's prize. Reese is Mommy's heartbreaker, Daddy's sports star and sometimes everyone's biggest pest! We are excited to meet Miss Finley Grace on March 15th 2011....just when we thought we were crazy, we get crazier! Photography is my passion, Jesus is my rock, wine is my guilty pleasure, and I love surrounding myself with people that I admire and love!
